Chapter 463 – Sword Demon! (2/2)
Yang Ye brought Xiao Yuxi and Little Yao back to the Darkbeast Empire. There were truly too many in the southern territory who wanted him dead, and his master, Lin Shan, may not necessarily be able to protect Little Yao if he were to leave her with him. Conversely, he had practically no enemies in the Darkbeast Empire, so Little Yao was definitely much safer here!
After he found out that Little Yao was Yang Ye’s younger sister, the Beast Emperor gave her a necklace. The necklace had no rank as a treasure, but it was extremely significant because a trace of the Beast Emperor’s aura was on it. So, no Darkbeast throughout the Grand Myriad Mountains would dare harm her while she was wearing it, and it was even to the extent that she could utilize the necklace to command some Darkbeasts!
Yang Ye would naturally take it for nothing. He utilized the profound energy within the tiny vortex throughout the next day to purify the bodies of some geniuses from the Darkbeast Empire, and it allowed their natural endowment, physique, and bloodline to rise a level higher. This made the Beast Emperor and some elders of the Darkbeast Empire extremely happy.
From that day onward, Little Yao had simple become the little princess of the Darkbeast Empire. Because everyone knew that she was the person Yang Ye was closest to and doted on the most. So, currying favor with her was naturally equivalent to currying favor with Yang Ye!
After he made arrangements for Little Yao, Yang Ye, An Nanjing, and the others started their journey to the Ancient Battlefield. Even though his strength was much stronger, and he even had his own forces, his enemies had become stronger as well and greater in number. If he were to allow the so-called Mortal Emperor to subdue the southern territory, then not to mention annihilating the Flower Palace, even survival would be a problem for him!
So, he had to do his best to stop the Mortal Emperor!
At the border of the Grand Myriad Mountains and the Ancient Battlefield, the Beast Emperor gazed towards the Ancient Battlefield with a slightly solemn expression while he said, “I hope you will be able to convince those powers in Ancient Domain City during your trip to the Ancient Battlefield. Otherwise, if the Mortal Emperor were to be allowed to occupy Ancient Domain City, then my Grand Myriad Mountains would definitely suffer the brunt of his attack when he launches his counterattack. Moreover, at that time, the strength of my Darkbeast Empire and the Grand Qin Empire would probably be unable to stop the Exalted Han Empire’s army!”
“Is it really that serious?” Yang Ye asked in a low voice. In his opinion, even though the Exalted Han Empire was strong, the joint forces of the Darkbeast Empire and Grand Qin Empire should be able to resist it at least. However, the Beast Emperor’s expression allowed Yang Ye to realize that his thoughts might have been too naïve.
The Beast Emperor nodded and said, “It’s very severe. You’re only aware of the strength that this colossus, the Exalted Han Empire, reveals on the surface. Their true strength is far from what they’ve revealed on the surface. For example, everyone is only aware of the Souleater Corps, but very few know that the Exalted Han Empire possesses another army which is superior to the Souleater Corps. No one knows the name of this army, and even I don’t. All I do know is that this army is made entirely from Exalt Realm experts! Moreover, it has at least 3,000 members… at least….”
When he spoke up to this point, the Beast Emperor paused for a moment and said, “Besides that, they have a mysterious troop called Saint Executioner, and it’s formed entirely from Monarch Realm experts. It’s said to be even capable of slaughtering a Saint Realm expert. The number of members it possesses is unknown!”
Yang Ye’s expression changed when he heard this. An army formed from at least 3,000 Exalt Realm experts and a troop formed from Monarch Realm Experts…. Such strength, resources, and reserves…. No wonder it possesses such a long history in the continent! No wonder it was capable of deterring those Ninth Rank Sects! No wonder it could force the Unfettered One to retreat all those years ago!“Besides that, according to the Founding Emperor, the mysterious League of Doom in the southern territory seems to be a force that belongs to the Exalted Han Empire, and he is just not completely sure of it. However, all of us think that it should be true!” The Beast Emperor said, “If it’s true, then it represents that the Exalted Han Empire had started to plot for the southern territory hundreds of years ago!”
Yang Ye’s pupils constricted. He hadn’t imagined that the mysterious League of Doom might actually belong to the Exalted Han Empire. If it’s really true, then the Exalted Han Empire is truly quite terrifying.
“I’ll try my best!” said Yang Ye in a low voice.
“That’s for the best!” The Beast Emperor smiled and said, “The Founding Emperor and I have prepared everything that’s needed. Return to the Grand Myriad Mountains if you’re unable to ally with those powers in Ancient Domain City. Unless the entire Grand Myriad Mountains are destroyed, otherwise, I’ll definitely stop at nothing to protect you.”
“Why?” Yang Ye was slightly surprised.
“I intend to make a huge bet!” The Beast Emperor said, “I’m betting that you, Yang Ye, won’t die prematurely. I’m betting that you, Yang Ye, will be able to surpa.s.s the Unfettered One in the future! I’m betting that you, Yang Ye, can bring hope to my Darkbeast Empire!”
Yang Ye shook his head and chuckled. “Senior, you seem to be even more confident in me than I am of myself!”
The Beast Emperor smiled and said, “Let’s not continue on this topic. Go on, quickly! Good luck! You don’t have to worry about your younger sister. She won’t be in any danger while she’s in the Darkbeast Empire.”
Yang Ye nodded, and then his figure flashed towards the distance.
The Beast Emperor fell silent for a short while as he watched Yang Ye’s figure vanish into the distance, and then he said in a soft voice, “The situation in the southern territory is really going to change!”
After he finished speaking, the Beast Emperor’s face turned gloomy as he said, “Issue the order! Order all Darkbeasts in closed door cultivation to emerge from their cultivation and order all Darkbeasts in the Grand Myriad Mountains to swiftly return to the Beast Capital! Kill any who defy this order!”
“Yes!”
